The increase in earthquakes is one of the signs of the Hour, as narrated by Al-Bukhari from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "The Hour will not be established until knowledge is taken away, earthquakes become frequent, time passes quickly, tribulations appear, al-harj (i.e., killing) increases, and wealth becomes so abundant among you that it overflows." The change in the direction of the shadow is not evidence of a change in the Earth's rotation, because it changes with the change of seasons.
